Plant Growth

 
I'm a bit disappointed in the volunteer honeysuckle around the big tree in the front yard this year. It usually blooms for at least a week with multiple blossoms. This year most of the blossoms have washed off in heavy rains pretty much as soon as they formed. There don't seem to have been as many of them this time, either. 

The volunteer wild rose at the same tree has only bloomed two or three times since it started growing, nearly twenty years ago. This year wasn't one of them. :-(
